A question from a friend. Perhaps you know this plant?

Has anyone grown this flower? It's very beautiful and drought tolerant and
I'd love to have it in my garden but searching this thistle I found that the
ucdavis site has a Berkheya rigida as an invasive weed, although not this
species. Does anyone have any experience with its self-seeding? Arline
Not personally known to me, but NZ Botanica recommends this spcies while warning some others may be weedy.
